Buttons : The PhatSheep Handmade Button Swap 2


Remember the button swap I participated in a few weeks ago ? This was the Handmade Button Swap organized by PhatSheep. We had to handmake a coherent set of 6 buttons. I am amazed about the variation ! Fabric, fimo, linen, velvet, crochet, painted, embroidered, ceramics, felted etc. Have a look at all the entries (even more pictures here):
